In the video Tracy shows how to use, and how effective traditional cutlers rivets are for attaching handle material to your knife. To use them, pound the male solid shank side into the female tube side and they will hold tight. REALLY TIGHT!
This style handle fastener is still widely used today after a hundred or more years; because it works so well. It's quick, easy and holds fast. Your commercial kitchen knives almost certainly use some form of cutlers rivets.
